The fight against Temu and Shein: Stay competitive with delivery time

On this page

Are Temu and Shein starting to grab a share of your customer base? Turn shipping and delivery into your advantage.

You might remember the “buy and support local” movement that gained a lot of traction during the 2020 lockdowns. It was, and still is, vital for your local society to support both local and national businesses.

Even though people are free to shop in physical stores again, the pandemic has left a lasting mark - an unprecedented boom in online shopping.

With this rise in online purchases, we’ve also seen more competitors join the market, not just domestically but internationally - like the giants Temu and Shein.

The two Chinese platforms have truly managed to take many international markets by storm – including the Danish one. This has sparked numerous complex discussions, with many facets and challenges that don’t have a clear solution today or tomorrow. However, this doesn’t change the competition that Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian webshops are facing. And if you’re among those who have felt this impact on your bottom line, we’re here to help.

Use what they can’t offer

Our strength lies in shipping. While Temu and Shein might offer low-cost delivery through services like GLS, DAO, and PostNord, you can compete on factors beyond just price.

For instance, their standard delivery time is 8-10 business days. You have the upper hand here with faster delivery times, thanks to your proximity to customers, as well as the option for local pickup. And don’t forget the environmental benefits of shopping from your local business rather than products shipped from halfway around the world.

With us, you can consolidate all your shipping agreements across carriers, streamlining logistics to ensure your customers receive the fastest possible delivery.

Not only can you improve your outgoing shipments, but you can also offer a seamless return process through Shipmondo Return Portal - yet another advantage over the Chinese giants.

Strengthen customer relationships

Creating a sense of urgency is a proven tactic, and here you’ve got the edge - being closer to your customers fosters stronger relationships. This increases the chances that they’ll choose to shop with you again. Keep them informed every step of the way with our personalized messaging service.

At Shipmondo, we can be your trusted partner in the fight against Temu and Shein. So, do you want to give your customers the freedom to choose the carriers you work with, and provide flexible shipping options that suit your business?

Enhance your delivery options and shipping prices at checkout and offer a superior shopping experience that beats the Chinese competition.
